Run With Pride⁹

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: P Mathers| T: D Shaw| OR: 65

7/2

Races for the first time in his career at the minimum trip and showed speed with a change of tactics before fading over 6f here last time. Not without hope but has it to do.

Form: 906-917

(2)

Everkyllachy^b¹⁵

Age: 3| Weight: 9-6| J: Hollie Doyle| T: J S Moore| OR: 64| D

13/2

Three wins on turf but 0-6 on A/W to date. Trip no problem but handicapper is proving slow to release his grip. Yard going through a quiet spell at present.

Form: 331996

(8)

Dream Ally¹⁸⁰

Age: 7| Weight: 9-6| J: Phil Dennis⁽³⁾| T: J R Weymes| OR: 64| CD

14/1

Returns after six-month absence but has gone well fresh in the past. Four course wins to his name including over this trip so should come into the reckoning. Any market interest would be worth noting.

Form: 516118

(9)

Swendab^b¹⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-6| J: Rossa Ryan⁽⁷⁾| T: J G M O'Shea| OR: 64| CD

9/2

In fine form of late, winning twice over C&D then running well when second at Chelmsford last time. Has risen in the weights but young apprentice gets a tune out of this veteran so should be thereabouts once again.

Form: 325112

(7)

Eternalist²⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-3| J: Sean Mooney⁽⁷⁾| T: J S Goldie| OR: 61| D

7/2

Has run well for today's jockey on last two starts, both over today's C&D. Front-runner so should give supporters a decent run for their money.

Form: 514032

(5)

Cruise Tothelimit^b,t³⁹

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: Sebastian Woods⁽⁷⁾| T: P Morris| OR: 60| CD

14/1

Veteran closing in on his 100th racecourse appearance. 10 successes to date, but probably went too fast and burned himself out last time. Just 1-21 on A/W to date suggests he has it all to do.

Form: 228320

(4)

Point North^b²⁸

Age: 10| Weight: 9-2| J: R Winston| T: J Balding| OR: 60| CD

25/1

Dropped 5lb since last start but not without reason. Has finished last on each of his last three outings and is hard to enthuse over in current form.

Form: 021580

(10)

Jumping Around^p⁷⁰

Age: 3| Weight: 9-2| J: S Donohoe| T: Ian Williams| OR: 60

14/1

Raced over 6-7f for most of her career and hasn't shone at this trip in two outings earlier this year. First-time blinkers failed to do the trick last time out but may improve for them second time around. Not without hope.

Form: 773289

(6)

Krystallite^p¹⁶

Age: 4| Weight: 8-13| J: Josephine Gordon| T: S Dixon| OR: 57| CD

8/1

Both wins to date have come over C&D and not run badly on two most recent starts at this venue. Has fallen to an attractive mark so any move in the betting would be worth taking into account.

Form: 569646

(1)

Your Gifted^v⁵

Age: 10| Weight: 8-7| J: Raul Da Silva| T: L Williamson| OR: 50| CD

14/1

Very rare to see a 10-year-old mare still sprinting but this 11-time winner ran well here at big odds last time out finishing second. Comes into the reckoning on that and may be in the money again.

Forecasts

Run With Pride (7/2), Eternalist (7/2), Swendab (9/2), Everkyllachy (13/2), Krystallite (8/1), Absolutely Awesome (12/1), Jumping Around (14/1), Your Gifted (14/1), Dream Ally (14/1), Cruise Tothelimit (14/1), Point North (25/1)

SWENDAB comes here in fair form and a repetition of recent efforts should see this tough sprinter right in the thick of the action. Dream Ally has to be considered despite his absence and is expected to be on the premises, while veteran mare Your Gifted cannot be ruled out after showing some of her old spark last time out. Run With Pride and Eternalist are others to consider.
